I have this cue a long time. Bought it because I thought it was a Titlist conversion. But now I am not so sure? So I thought I would throw up some pictures and get some feedback? Mark

I have a passion for old Titlist. I picked up a few and was asking around as to whom i might get to convert. I live in Ca. so when i can i try to support Ca. cue makers. I friend of mine recommended I talk to Carlos Coll. Carlos was a pleasure to deal with. He kept me updated thru out the whole...

Chris, Yes I am supposed to be able to change it back. But since it was such a drastic differnce i decided to go thru proper channels. I did check after to see if i could and was unable to. To bad you cant make it. This might be my last year. MarknTorrance

Thanks for all the responses. I will make one last point and then move on. I agree his fargo rate well work itself out in time. Thats of course assuming this doesn't turn him off from BCA. This is what I have a problem with. You dont play for 8 years. You come join a BCA league to go play...

Do you play at Mr Luckys? MarknTorrance

Ok can someone answer this? What is the starting rating for someone with no games played?

If his top end is the higher, this is just a guess on my part, then he has been moved up by 38 points. Whats the difference? Gold or platinum singles. IMHO huge difference. MarknTorrance

I guess I havent explained myself well enough. I have know this player for 20 years. He got married hasnt played much the last 8 years. I know his top game. His top game is about 570 to 580 range. I gave him a 545 based on how he was currently playing. I stand by it 100 percent. I have run a bca...

I run a BCA league. This year I had to give a fargo rates to new players. I wasn't happy about this but was told to use comparable to other players so that is what i did. One player hadn't played* since fargo started so he had no number. I used comparable and started him at 545. My league was...

I have an old valley coin op just paid to have new rubber and cloth. I paid for simonis 860. The table is playing very very slow. I am thinking the simonis got installed upside down. Would this cause the table to play very very slow? Thanks! Mark

Damn, that reminds me need to get to the post office!! MarknTorrance

I got a email asking if my auction on the Mottey on ebay is legit or if my account had been hijacked. its legit. Its a nice cue plays well and it a starting bid if 500 very reasonable. I dont have time for AZ anymore busy being a single daddy barely have time to play pool. I might sale off a few...

Grape jelly, Oh i mean John, You played the match against jimbo, you lost. You tried in a desperate and pathetic way to not pay up. Every since then you have had a hard on for Jimbo and follow him everywhere. Get over it. Move on. Get a life. MarknTorrance

I worked in the grocery biz for 15 years and saw a lot of bad checks. The easiest way to try and see if its legit is if there is a phone number on the check call it and ask for the person who's name is on the check. Most of the time if its bad its a wrong number. Of course there has to be a...
